Hi Hugh,
Perhaps you recall meeting my wife (Yvonne) and I at the Home and Garden show in Vancouver back in February when we ordered a deck comprised of a Godfrey and a Dakota kit. We took delivery at the end of April. Our property in West Vancouver slopes on the mountainside and the deck was required to turn one of the rear garden terraces into useful space for enjoying the garden. We completed the installation last week.
We are delighted with it. The kit was very comprehensive and the video made it very easy to understand how everything fitted together. However, what has been most useful for us is the flexibility the modular assembly allowed. As it developed and we could assess the levels against the existing terrain - which is hard to visualize until you start - we changed the design from a four tile wide deck to make it longer but only three tiles wide and used some tiles to line up with a set of steps we built last year before we saw your system at the show.
The finished product looks great and has attracted many favourable comments from visitors. I have attached a few photos for your interest. Thanks for a great system.

"We absolutely love our deck. We have had nothing but wonderful things said to us about our deck. Everyone asks us where we got it and they want one too."

"We love it. When it was first installed we had 30 or 40 people over and there were a lot of people on the deck at one time. Because of the amount of weight, and because it had just been set up, two of the areas settled. It was no problem. I had it put back and leveled again within 10 minutes. This deck is perfect for anyone having shifting problems or where soil might be unstable such as where a new home is built. It also gives you the versatility to raise or lower it a bit if you decide you would like a deck of a different height - this is a big plus. I would highly recommend this to anyone especially anyone who does not want to do any cutting, drilling, etc."

"Love the deck. It is on my front door so I use it everyday. I put some plastic lattice on it so it looks great! I actually have some new neighbors on one side of me and they asked about my deck; now they are considering buying a deck like mine."

"We love our deck. We get complements from people all the time. It has been holding up really well."
